Envelope Clutch

I had posted about a sew along at See Kate Sew a couple weeks ago for an envelope clutch. In the end didn't get the chance to make it during the sew along but decided to make it as part of a gift I'm sending for a swap..

Cute huh..

The tutorial calls for a button closure.. But I decided to do this closure instead. (Although I really should try out using my button hole foot).

Boo to the mis-oriented lining

Another modification I was to forgo the "dips"on either side of the centre piece. To do this I just folded the pattern a bit deeper. (It will make sense if you take a look at the orginal clutch and pattern)

I also top stitched around the opening to keep that vinyl in its place.

This is a great tutorial for a quick project.. Pattern is one piece, should take you 1hr or less.
